Waste Plan
What is the South London Waste Plan?
Landfill space is running out and buried waste releases climate-changing gases. Therefore, new ways of dealing with waste are needed.
The South London Waste Plan DPD sets out the issues and objectives to be met in waste management for the next ten years. It is a joint DPD and covers the geographical area comprising the London Borough of Croydon, the Royal Borough of Kingston-upon-Thames, the London Borough of Merton and the London Borough of Sutton. The South London Waste Plan DPD contains policies to guide the determination of planning applications for waste management facilities and identifies existing waste sites to be safeguarded and areas where waste management development may be suitable.
Following the Examination in Public of the South London Waste Plan the Inspector has published his binding report. A link to the Inspector's report and adoption documents is available below.
